Jeremiah 10
10 Hear ye the word which the Lord speaketh unto you, O house of Israel:
2 Thus saith the Lord, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.
3 For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.
4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
5 They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.

Jeremi 10:1 ¶ Men, koute sa Seyè a di sou nou, nou menm moun pèp Izrayèl yo.
10:2 Li di konsa: -Piga nou swiv lòt nasyon yo. Nou pa bezwen pèdi tèt nou lè nou wè siy nan syèl la. Se moun lòt nasyon yo ki pou pè lè konsa.
10:3 Relijyon moun sa yo pa vo anyen. Yo koupe yon pyebwa nan rakbwa, yo fè yon bòs atizan travay li ak sizo.
10:4 Yo dekore l' ak ajan, ak lò. Yo pran mato ak klou yo kloure l' pou fè l' kanpe pou l' pa tonbe.
10:5 Bondye sa yo kanpe tankou pikèt nan jaden konkonm. Yo pa ka pale. Se pote pou yo pote yo, paske yo pa ka mache. Nou pa bezwen pè yo, yo pa ka fè anyen ni an byen ni an mal.
